Massive 1255m2 Property! Rare Opportunity Don't Miss Out!
Sale fallen through, another opportunity to buy this rare property! One of the biggest Hilton blocks is up for the taking!
1255m2, zoned R20, representing a golden era when land was plentiful and the quarter acre property was king. This old-world character cottage is in need of the renovator's skill, would be a great contender for The Block! Upon inspection one can see this property is a work-in-progress, a diamond in the rough, and if you can see the forest through the trees you will discover there is serious potential for this precious home of yesteryear.
Wake up to the sound of twittering birds that nest in the bougainvillea entwined in the verandah lattice. The home is surrounded unashamedly by lush and freely growing gardens and foliage, typifying what the Garden Suburb of Hilton is famous for; appealing to the green minded the cottage is nestled amongst a generous patch of nature and has been spared the bobcat to let nature grow without restraint.
Looking past the work that is needed, you can visualize a suburban sanctuary with its character cottage and circular driveway. This is the part where the eager renovator steps in, to bring out the best of this golden oldy. Indeed, the home lends itself well to the restoration enthusiast, with features such as Dutch gabled colour bond roof, lead light windows and French doors that open the front and back doorways. Tall ceilings throughout, floorboards, decorative ceiling roses in the main rooms.
A large living room has a lovely view of the front yard or you can sit in the covered courtyard amongst hanging pot plants. The afternoon sea breeze will flow through the house from the back yard to the front, cooling off the house. Separate Lounge room and living areas come off a long hallway into a dining and kitchen area. Three bedrooms, study, and/or potential walk-in pantry. A large games room or separate teenage retreat comes off the court yard. The bathroom has an extra large bath and dual shower heads, a quaint pedestal sink sits on a polished jarrah floor.
Set amongst established trees, an expansive green canopy shades the garden areas for tranquil outdoor living, with lots of space for kids play equipment. It also has a great tree house, set above the courtyard for close supervision, with a fireman pole and a staircase for easy access. An underground bore reticulation for front & back gardens. Heritage rose bushes surround many fruit trees including Almond, Mulberry, Mandarin, Red Grape, apple tree bearing both Pink Lady and Granny Smith and a pear tree that bears both Bocce and Packham pears. Multiple garden sheds for more storage.
